Concert band - Grade 2 SKU: CL.011-4290-01
Composed by S. Smith. Young Concert Band. Command Series. Audio recording available separately (item CL.WFR382). Extra full score. Composed 2014. Duration 3 minutes, 39 seconds. C.L. Barnhouse #011-4290-01. Published by C.L. Barnhouse (CL.011-4290-01). Here’s an engaging and imaginative work for developing musicians that has the added benefit of providing great teaching opportunities! Into The Dragon's Keep opens and closes with a haunting flute/optional piccolo solo that will leave your students feeling like they just stepped into a story. Utilizing an open drone in the low brass throughout, giving it a very medieval and Celtic sound, your students will be engaged as they learn about playing in contrasting meters of 3/4 and 6/8, and in Dorian mode. Highly recommended!
